Alright im in a computers class and its time to build a computer. I already have a 160GB Hard drive, a cd burner, and this case http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16811208008. Video card and operating system will come with time. I need to know a good motherboard/prosessor/ram combo to go with the computer. The games I play are battlefield/world of warcraft/counter strike source so I would like the motherboard to meet 1.8ghz's and 512mb of ram or higher. Also it would be nice if it was less than 200$.


Thanks in advance,
Stephen
 
Well something that is socket 939, has a PCI-E slot (assuming you dont already own a video card) and it should integrated video if you are planning on buying the GPU later on. I dont have time to go look now.
 
Why not go with a sempron,aren't they cheaper and they can decently game and be used for average use,but if the athlons work well into the budget then scratch what i said.

EDIT:That cpu is OEM and that graphic card is horrid.
 
lol well I plan on buying this out of school and building it in school so im not sure what im talking about although I am learning fast. What makes a different graphics card that is 256mb better?


Thanks,
Stephen
